Responsible for Future Generations! We Collect Expired Medicines Responsibly!

Responsible for Future Generations! We Collect Expired Medicines Responsibly!

A seemingly small gesture can make a significant difference to the environment we live in and the health of future generations. Expired or unused medicines should never be disposed of in household waste or poured down the drain. They must be collected separately and handed over for safe disposal.

At Antibiotice Iași, we believe that responsibility is built through awareness, active involvement and, above all, leading by example. Through our campaign, "Responsible for Future Generations! Collecting Expired Medicines Responsibly!", we encourage our colleagues to adopt responsible practices and inspire others to do the same.

As part of the campaign, employees learn about the importance of proper medicine disposal and have access to a dedicated collection point within the company. The results of the four editions speak for themselves: 442 kg of expired or unused medicines and food supplements collected! Of this total, 134 kg were collected during the campaign held between 26 and 30 October 2026.

Alongside Antibiotice pharmacists and specialists, pharmacy students from Iași also took part as volunteers through the AntibioticeSkills project, gaining practical insights into how they can become advocates for environmental responsibility in their future careers.
